A member asked:

Hi there, i got my tonsils removed two weeks ago and was wondering when it will be safe to smoke marijuana. thank you in advance.

At your own risk: There are few direct studies of such activity. Given that any smoking interferes with the rate of healing you are on your own when you smoke anything after such a procedure.
